Yup.
I enjoy the English language, and I wince a little bit whenever somebody mangles it horribly. It's especially painful when they mangle it amidst a self-righteous series of ridiculous rants.
As has been stated by others, I would suggest taking the time to properly edit and format your thoughts and opinions. Yours are currently presented in, at best, a sloppy format. I do know some people who post get flustered because English is their non-primary language; if this is the case for you, consider taking the extra time to hone your writing. This extra processing time may also grant you much-needed perspective.
When I speak of perspective, I am referring mostly to your rants about Wythor "flaming" you and treating you rudely. I would grant you that his response to you was straightforward to the point that you could imagine it curt, yes. That said, it is no reason to pull out the "paying customer" card and wave it around like it entitles you make accusations at somebody that spends their personal time working to make this game better. He is not your employee. And he has shown you no disrespect.
Unless you derive some sort of enjoyment from irritating others, I would suggest you work on those two aspects of your on-line communication. To reiterate,
1) Take the time to post well-formatted examples of your thoughts in proper English.
2) Step back, gaze out a window, occupy your mind with something positive for awhile. It is very easy to lose objectivity and lash out against perceived transgressions against you, but you will not have great success in expressing your opinion effectively if you come across as ranting and paranoid.
2a) I just skim the boards, so as a fairly objective mind that was taking in the flow of information as it passed back and forth, your reaction to Wythor and then others was disproportionate to their responses to you.
All that said, I think seeing everyone lit up with their magic effects is a little silly, so personally I'm not entirely in disagreement with your point of view, but the way in which you expressed your view rather forces people to focus on your method of expression rather than the point you were originally trying to make.
That's my civil take on it, anyway, minus the need for piano-wire strangulation. To put it bluntly, please try to stop sounding like a crazy person.

yeah i speaks wit terrible diction, and a lousy sense of sentence structure. I speak as fast as I can think...not pausing to re-edit...especially when I am being verbally attacked, and having my opinions/topics/concerns buried by people whom just seem to find glee in adding there two cents...seemingly just for the purpose to derail a person's concerns/opinions/Original topics....
Yes I began to rant more and more...
telling someone who is already 'steamed' to shut up or 'chill-out', as stated before, often has, quite the opposite effect
and now with the advent of this topic..bearing My name.only causes me to veiw more and more of you as snerts....
snerts are yet another reason for the declining player-base

"if you dont want to see the new messages go get stunned.." which was loosely what Wythor said in responce to my concerns and opinion of the es spell messaging...that only being One of the Glib and Rude comments he'd directed towards me and My opinions and concerns..so It was just Him/her I replied back to with my steamed-rants in such a way...then gladdly aimed my steam at others whom did again begin to flame me in His/Her defence..

You're really crossing another line when you suggest meeting IRL to fight and saying you have better things to do than play this game.
Personally, I only play when I want to play...

I open up the boards today and see that the boards have been largely inactive, a few posts here and there except in the warrior mage folders, where there is a whopping 55 posts. Naively I think to myself, "Something must have been released! Or nerfed!"
So I open up the folders to see what's up and discover that it's only Theelos waging a solo campaign against a harmless change, trying to convince us that things like this has caused fifteen hundred people to quit DR and accusing OTHER players on this board of spamming.
Well, at least nothing was nerfed.
